The Sun £9.50 holidays - anymore this year?

I was looking on ebay at the Sun priority reference codes and saw someone selling one. I checked her feedback to see if she looked reliable...
And noticed that this is the SIXTH priority reference code she has sold since 30th April this year.
Now surely this can't be right?
Like many people I didn't receive a code this time round, so I am wondering how this woman has so many? (Presuming they are all genuine and there's nothing in the feedback to suggest they aren't).
I does make you wonder if perhaps The Sun needs to be keeping a closer eye on it's employees? -or even if perhaps they shouldn't send the codes out in envelopes so helpfully marked for the postworkers to know what they contain?
Because when these codes are going for around £20+ each and someone has six of them available it really makes you wonder what is going on...0 -
if anyone has got a priority booking form, i would be extremly grateful!!!0

Been trying to buy a priority code on ebay - keep getting outbid all the time!!! Bought one before for £25 but now they are going in excess of £30!!!! Think might leave this one out this time!! Does anyone know when the next load will be out for next yr?0

As I said above, I think there seems to be something funny going on with the Sun priority codes this time around. Some people are selling priority code after priority code on ebay (you can tell by checking their feedback), and I really don't see how someone can be legitimately getting hold of three plus codes. It seems very funny when so many of us don't even seem to have got one this time around.
With them going for so much on ebay there surely is an incentive for fraud.
Perhaps the time has come for the Sun to make the codes available to anyone that wants one, to level the playing field, because the way they are doing it now seems very unfair.0 -

I thought that everyone who had previously done a sun holiday would be entitled to 1. I bought my last one off ebay for our trip to France but i was hoping this time around would have received my own one. Not to be...and i am not getting into a bidding war on ebay for these codes so will try the old fashioned way or wait until nxt lot of hols come out.0 -
Does anyone know what age you have to start paying for passes is it 3 ?0

not sure how the priority codes work but a few years ago I booked two holidays; one around easter and one later in year by postal application, after that I used to receive two priority forms each time the holiday offer came out, but then two years ago I was unable to use one so offered it to someone on here and since then have only ever received one priority form each time. So maybe the people who get more than one have previously booked more than one holiday by post. Thats my theory and if I don't give away my code if I can't use it I should still get a code each time hopefully, which may seem a bit selfish but sometimes it is the only way I get to go away now Ryanair doesn't seem to have 1p or £1 flights.0

After the very first time when we booked by post, years ago, we have always received one priority code sinc ethey started doing that. Sometimes it has been in my name, sometimes my mother's (I've booked in both names in the past) but we have always received one. This is the first time we haven't, and I noticed on here that there seemed to be far more people in the same boat than previous times.
I guess we'll see what happens when the next offer comes round...0 -
Finally got my hands on a priority code - got a buy it now price of £11.99 on ebay - much better than the £30 some people were charging. Does anyone have a link to book online? thanks0
